I guess the comment from the error log is misleading. The best way to resolve this will be a trip to your servers logs. I am dealing with the OAI Interface of our own repository in the last weeks which makes me read these commands and understand them immediately right now. I will probably forget about within some weeks. But, in general the OAI commands called verbs are very simple. > I don't know whether it is a problem with oaicat.properties and > resumptionToken or that my server is just not configured correctly. If there were a problem with the oaicat.properties, then the answer to this request would look different, e.g. if you would have forgotten to run install-configs, then the email address would look strange. It does not, so everything is fine here. Compare with the result of "Identify" from other repositories. <http://si-pddr.si.edu/dspace-oai/request?verb=Identify> The resumption token is not an issue, as your server does not ever reach the point where a resumption token would be expected. The test was designed to discover problems with resumption tokens which explains why the error log mentions it. Forget about it. > In any case, the validation request returns an HTTP 500 error. This is the real problem: Your server responds with a HTTP 500 to a valid request. This fault is reproducible. But, this is the only request where your server fails. Strange. I tried to replace ListRecords with ListIdentifiers which delivers a shortened form of the same stuff: It works fine. Requesting a single Item works fine too. Which means that all other basic functions work besides ListRecords. <http://si-pddr.si.edu/dspace-oai/request?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_dc > <http://si-pddr.si.edu/dspace-oai/request?verb=ListIdentifiers&metadataPrefix=oai_dc > <http://si-pddr.si.edu/dspace-oai/request?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=oai:si-pddr.si.edu:10088/29 > If your dspace.log doesnt give you a hint, take a very close look at the catalina.log or whatever the tomcat logs are called on your system. Logging tends to be configured to be very quiet per default for Tomcat. You might need to change your configuration nd hit the link again to find useful information. You can change this at the very end of your conf/server.xml and you can tune the behaviour in conf/logging.properties. > When I tried the Repository Explorer as suggested in the email, my > site > seems to validate fine. I can hardly believe this. When I tried first I thought this service is hanging. It does in rare cases but it actually did not then. Instead, it takes really long to complete, I mean really long. It might take five Minutes or more and it performs around fourty checks or so. And it will definitely perform this one and will fail with that too. I am off until next week. Post back to the list with more questions.
